Explores the characteristics, history and needs of Boxers.

The Boxer was developed in Germany as a medium-sized security dog. The breed combines the blood of a mastiff-type breed that was used for hunting, herding and protection with that of the Bulldog. The result is a smooth-coated, agile dog measuring up to 25 inches at the shoulder. Color may be shades of fawn or brindle with white markings, which must not exceed one-third of the ground color to meet the official breed standard. The breed was introduced to America after World War I, when it was brought home by returning servicemen. Since then, the Boxer's popularity has grown enormously. The breed is valued as a spirited pet and guardian of home and family. Its sleek coat is easily maintained; a weekly rubdown with a bristle brush keeps it clean. Strong and exuberant, this breed appreciates a couple of daily runs outdoors. As long as it gets plenty of exercise, the Boxer can adapt to most living quarters.

Boxers - Dog Books for Kids Table of Contents Introduction Chapter 1 Early History Chapter 2 Fascinating Features & Care Chapter 3 Amazing Boxers facts Conclusion A Family's best friend Author Bio Introduction Happiness is a warm puppy. -Charles M. Schulz Boxers are fun loving dogs with a heart of gold. At first glance, they may seem imposing with a hidden message of 'see but don't touch' - that is until their joy and boundless energy comes shining through! This short haired, stocky breed comes from Germany. A mix between an Old English Bulldog and the Bullenbeisser (Now extinct), this breed is a part of the working group of dogs. After World War I, Boxers arrived to the United States, and became a lovable companion to many dog owners. Despite their origins, it is not a surprise to hear Boxers called the "Peter Pan" of the dog world. This label is quite accurate because this breed of dog takes a long time to mature into adulthood. Usually they are considered mature when they are three years old! So you will enjoy their puppy like antics for a few years. Typical Boxers are smart, funny, alert and loyal. They are also friendly, (although wary with strangers until they warm up) and will go to great lengths to please you. However, it is important to note these wonderful qualities hide a stubborn streak that could outlast your patience! Thankfully, this type of behavior is not common, and is the result of inappropriate training methods. Mental and physical exercise is required for this breed. This does not mean he / she cannot live in an apartment with you. They can adapt as long as you are there to spend time with them and provide the required exercise. This breed is gentle with children and a wonderful playmate for them. Boxers also love hugs, pats, kisses and rubs. The more the merrier! There is no doubt their clownish behavior, goofy antics, crazy faces and boundless energy will bring a smile to your face, and a warm feeling to your heart. For these reasons and more, Boxers are highly recommended as a loyal companion well deserving of the title... man's best friend!
